There are already triage protocols in place that ration care based on severity and availability of equipment/staff. COVID is agnostically treated alongside those protocols. So if COVID symptoms are severe enough to bump the priority of a bed, then the worst person gets the bed. And as capacity is filled up, more triage and rationing of care/equipment for the worst patients takes priority. Making a two-track quota/rationing of care based on the source of distress is a poor precedent for health care.
